Huge Dobermans might be a better plan.

They look nice... should have cemented and rebarred them in place.

I left Seattle for my own acreage in Kentucky in 2008. This kind of nonsense is one of the reasons. Modern american cities are a problem. Even Louisville, KY.

The answer is to simply get out.

Maybe pigeon spikes

Louisville’s a cesspool. Wish Indiana would annex it.

That’s why all the young ladies who moved into downtown L.A. now have pit bulls as pets when they walk at nights.

Racist Rocks.

Good on you. Following same life's path from a Detroit suburb to mid-Michigan. I wish I would have done it 20 years earlier.

I heard that Bouncing Bettys worked well too.

Fake news. The boulders have been placed there to keep drug dealers from setting up tents and selling drugs there. It's been in the local press and tv. It's not against the homeless.

I left Seattle in 2008 for flyover country in North Dakota.

Part of me misses Seattle, but the truth is I miss the memory of what Seattle used to be, not what it currently is. I couldn’t raise my kids there today. Instead they’re in a small town school with a bunch of farm kids, happy and safe.

Bring on the scoops, but who would eat the product.

Close the thread. Comment # 2 is the answer.

Unless you want to go with Pit Bulls, Rottweiler’s, or any other assorted aggressive breed.

The homeless and the city should be grateful for this non-violent protest and solution.

Dear voters;

When you vote for clowns.
Don’t be surprised your city becomes a circus.

[Sgt_Schultze]

The residents should refer to the boulders as “art” and dare the city to violate their free speech.

I can’t imagine living in such an environment. The good people of California are in an impossible situation.
